Thanks again.

I think I'll stay with PV for now and if I want amd64/HVM I'll go the
PXE boot route.  I didn't try Xen's PXE support but it sounds much
more attractive than having a BSD-labeled and BSD-filesystemed vnode
file floating around in the Linux dom0.  Plus I already have a PXE
boot environment for all these guests.
